A notice to all FIA members. Following substantial work by the FIA Board, our members, other associations including the MBA and CMMFEU and SafeWork NSW we have now reached the final stage of verifying the new revised Code of Practice for Formwork in NSW that provides guidance for employers, businesses and other PCBUs (persons conducting a business or undertaking).
SafeWork NSW and the FIA now invite you to 'Have Your Say' as the final part of the process. The new draft code seeks to demonstrate how to manage the work health and safety risks related to formwork and falsework by establishing and supporting best practice.
Updates to the NSW code are supported by industry and the NSW Government, due to the industry’s high incident and fatality rates.
To 'Have Your Say':
- Read the Code
- Provide feedback with our online forms before the 9th September 2019.
- Feedback Survey Part 1
- Feedback Survey Part 2
If you can not access the forms, please send your feedback to the FIA General Manager.
The FIA will collate all feedback and forward this in a meeting with SafeWork NSW on the 17th September. It is very important that you have your feedback to us by the 9th September in order for us to review and present our members and industry feedback to SafeWork NSW.
If you have any questions then please contact us via email.
